Your Setups (Part 1)

[monochrome]

Absolutely phenomenal!!

[MaxMyriad]

Wow, absolutely killer job. I had a similar experience when trying to find the elusive “perfect studio desk” and ended up learning some woodworking to just build exactly what I wanted. But I designed mine with certain constraints as a guide - minimizing the complexity of techniques, limiting the number of tools required, transportation and budget considerations, etc. But you really did go all out, no compromises! Probably my favorite setup yet.

Just rearranged my Setup:

Still have a volca fm, po 32 and a nutekt.
Need to Figure out the microfreak if it fits for me.

Absolutely stunning.

It’s a cheap (£9) laptop stand from ebay.

I’ve put some sticky velcro pads on the base arms to secure it from sliding.

At the minute it only goes into the Digitone.

I can fairly easily swap it out to the A4 and Tracker but am definitely open to suggestions on how I could switch it to play them better?

Dayum… next level.

Thank you. Yeah I had 2 voices on their way out. I did the chip refurb process and only one of them came back to life. I figure the professionals can take it from here. Getting that epoxy mess out from some areas of those voice boards is more delicate than I have patience for.

[Sundaybeat]

To be able to design and realize my own racks, desks and supports it’s one of my dreams, that will never be true, for a total lack of ability, skills, space and time
Your work is amazing!!!

the infamous elektron lamp is back.

[r1n9o]

Incredible!

Next challenge: Replicate your Mac Pro case in wood!

Replicating The Apple Mac Pro Grill in Solid Cherry Wood

Bonus: You can then use the original case as a wood plane!

The metal dissipates heat.
Wood…burns.

procrastination or not , its beautiful. I don’t think it is, you will want to spend a lot of time in there!

Syncing Model:Cycles + TD-3 + Keystep

Aha! This is the exact issue I’m having. And after reading a few threads, I realize there isn’t a good solution for this specific setup. I want to use the keystep as a keyboard controller for a few different boxes (cycles, tracker, tempest). I prefer recording a good portion of melodic stuff by live keyboard input rather than step friended input. I want cycles to be the master clock, but it looks like keystep kind of has to be the master clock. Just like you say, the only way to do it is midi …

This is a post I made about using keystep as master controller, the pitfalls and workarounds.

[Zac]

Interesting setup. I’ve had the same issues when trying to use the keystep as master clock. I’m not eager enough to get the KS playing all 3 devices to jump through too many hoops to achieve it, but if I do I’ll be sure to let you know

[simonbradford]

Very nice achievement

[sheathe]

Wow, you even have a dust collection system with a homemade sawdust extractor. You’ve definitely been down some YouTube rabbit holes.

[sheathe]

Oh yeah, so since I made that post I was able to get a satisfactory setup with the keystep controlling everything downstream from the tempest.

[blurrghost]

Oh yeah, it’s awful. I had the same thing happen at first but my stubbornness won and soon I was custom grinding and shaping dental tools to get all of that goop with the aid of some hefty magnifying glasses. If your tech is good and not too expensive I’d recommend having him do all of them. Sooner or later they’ll all need the same treatment.

[konputa]

Absolutely, that’s the plan.

Grinding dental tools to fine point? Yup, that sounds 100% right!
